Abstract:BackgroundEarly catheter failure is the main reason for peritoneal dialysis (PD) failure, which often causes patients to withdraw from PD. Reducing the early catheter failure is critical to increase the acceptance of PD.

The primary outcome event was early catheter failure. Univariate an… Show more
